Digital Money Meets Traditional Finance

Stablecoins have crossed $300 billion in circulation. Tokenised deposits are live at various global banks. Yet for all the headline numbers, the hard question remains unanswered: how do programmable money instruments actually integrate with the treasury operations, correspondent banking relationships, and payments infrastructure that keep traditional finance running?

This session convenes senior practitioners from banks, corporates, and digital asset firms to examine the real friction points - legal, operational, and technical - where digital money collides with TradFi plumbing, and where the integration is quietly working better than anyone admits publicly. Participants will work through concrete use cases, surface the institutional hesitations that rarely appear in press releases - interoperability gaps, accounting treatment uncertainty, and the unresolved tension between programmability and regulatory compliance.
